All, sorry for not being able to attend the call. here are some comment on GridRPC. Andre Merzky wrote:
- SAGA and GridRPC: - some progress on mailing list - two potential point of conflict with current GridRPC API - config file exposes implementation on API level
what is the canonical way in SAGA to path optional configuration information to a binary? a specific-named file in the current working directory might work as well.
- varargs are used, which we did not consider yet (SIDL?)
To have single argument array might be the easiest solution.
- these issues should be addressed at GGF17 - apart from that, a RPC package (outside strawman) should be feasable between GGF17 and GGF18 - TODO ANDRE: create CVS dir, set up package and issue list - note: RPC sata handles not yet considered
what is 'sata' handle?
- note: relation to web services need clarification (there are SAGA use cases for that)
